One Cambium Networks India standard across every site.
How a Coimbatore logistics firm linked three warehouses over the air with Cambium PTP and stopped paying for a leased line that kept failing in the rain.
Cambium Networks Fixed Wireless at a glance
Why Cambium Networks anchors most Indian fixed wireless estates.
- OEM
- Cambium Networks is a United States wireless networking maker headquartered in Rolling Meadows, Illinois, with a long line in fixed wireless broadband. The range reaches India through authorised distribution and channel partners. Sirius Star surveys, deploys and services the range from Navi Mumbai.
- What it is
- A wireless connectivity line from one maker: ePMP and PMP point-to-multipoint radios, PTP point-to-point backhaul, cnPilot indoor and outdoor Wi-Fi, cnMatrix switches and cnWave 60 GHz radios, all managed from the cnMaestro controller.
- Why teams pick it
- It links sites that fibre cannot reach quickly or cheaply, the outdoor radios hold up to weather and distance, and one controller manages the access points, switches and links across every location instead of a box-by-box scramble.
- Core technology
- Licensed and unlicensed fixed wireless on sub-6 GHz and 60 GHz, point-to-point and point-to-multipoint topologies for backhaul and access, Wi-Fi 6 cnPilot access points for indoor and outdoor coverage, cnMatrix switching, and cloud or on-premise management through cnMaestro.
- Where it fits
- Multi-site businesses, warehouses and yards, campuses, hotels, manufacturing plants and rural or spread-out locations where running fibre between buildings is slow, costly or simply not possible. A wireless link goes up in days, not the months a trench can take.
- India pricing
- Indicative 2026 figures*: an ePMP client radio from about ₹9,000, an ePMP Force point-to-point pair from about ₹30,000, a cnPilot Wi-Fi access point from about ₹12,000, with PTP backhaul radios, cnWave 60 GHz and cnMatrix switches above that. Final price depends on the distance, throughput and number of sites.
- Sirius Star role
- We run a line-of-sight and throughput survey, pick point-to-point or point-to-multipoint, size the radios and antennas for the distance, supply and install the links and access points, set up cnMaestro management, and run an annual maintenance contract from Navi Mumbai.

Cambium Networks Fixed Wireless vs Ubiquiti, MikroTik, Aruba
All four are honest choices. Most Indian buyers land on the first option for service depth and ecosystem fit.
| Brand | Where it wins | Best fit |
|---|---|---|
| Cambium Networks | Carrier-grade fixed wireless from one maker, point-to-point and point-to-multipoint radios that hold up outdoors, and a single controller across links, Wi-Fi and switching. | Indian businesses linking multiple sites or covering large outdoor areas where fibre is slow or costly to lay. |
| Ubiquiti | Low-cost airMAX and UniFi gear with a large community and a familiar controller. | Smaller deployments and budget-led sites that can trade some outdoor ruggedness for price. |
| MikroTik | Very low hardware cost and deep, scriptable configuration for engineers. | Technical teams comfortable hand-tuning radios and routers themselves. |
| Aruba / Ruckus | Strong indoor enterprise Wi-Fi and large-campus wireless management. | Buyers centred on dense indoor Wi-Fi rather than outdoor point-to-point links. |

Cambium Networks Fixed Wireless India FAQ
Common questions about this brand for Indian buyers. Hover any underlined term for a plain-English definition.
What does Cambium Networks gear cost in India in 2026?
Indicative 2026 figures*: an ePMP client radio from about ₹9,000, an ePMP Force point-to-point pair from about ₹30,000, and a cnPilot Wi-Fi access point from about ₹12,000, with PTP backhaul radios, cnWave 60 GHz and cnMatrix switches above that. The real number depends on the distance between sites, the throughput you need and how many locations you are linking. Send your site map and distances and Sirius Star returns a quote in 24 working hours.
Can a Cambium wireless link replace a leased line between two buildings?
In many cases, yes. A Cambium point-to-point link carries traffic between two fixed sites over the air, so for buildings within line of sight it can replace a leased line or act as a backup to one. You pay once for the radios instead of a monthly rental, and a wireless link can go up in days rather than waiting on a fibre trench. We survey the path first, because clear line of sight and distance decide what is possible. Sirius Star will tell you honestly whether wireless fits your sites.
What is the difference between point-to-point and point-to-multipoint?
A point-to-point link connects two fixed locations, like a head office and one warehouse, with a dedicated radio at each end. Point-to-multipoint uses one base radio at a hub to serve several remote client radios, which suits connecting many small sites or cameras back to one location. PTP gives each link its own capacity, while PMP shares the hub across sites and keeps the hardware count down. We help you pick the topology that fits how your sites are spread out.
Does Cambium Networks work in India, and is it supported here?
Yes. Cambium fixed wireless, Wi-Fi and switching reach India through authorised distribution and channel partners, and the radios are deployed widely across logistics, manufacturing, hospitality and rural connectivity here. For a business that means hardware, spares and configuration support are available in-country rather than weeks away on an import. Sirius Star surveys, supplies, installs and services the range from Navi Mumbai, and manages the estate through cnMaestro.
Can Sirius Star link multiple sites with Cambium across cities?
Yes. We survey the line of sight and distance between each pair of sites, pick point-to-point or point-to-multipoint, size the radios and antennas, and standardise the build so every location works the same way. We install and align the links, set up cnPilot Wi-Fi where it is needed, and bring the whole estate under one cnMaestro console with an annual maintenance contract. A new site follows the same standard instead of becoming a one-off. The work is run from Vashi, Navi Mumbai.
